This chardonnay has approximately 20 percent reserve wines and 10 percent fermentation in oak (large casks and older barriques) providing a comforting bolster of lees to this finessed, elegant fizz. White flowers, yellow apple, subtle hazelnut and stone lead the medium-bodied palate, lifted with pithy, chiselled acidity.Tasted: 15 February 2016Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| BC | $47.00 | 750ml | private wine shops |
